Bangalore, Dec 12 (IANS) The album of 'Cheluvina Chithhaara' continues to rock, though the film has stopped running in major centres. Here are the hottest Kannada albums:

1) 'Cheluvina Chiththaara': Listeners continue to lap up Mano Murthy's music and Sonu Nigam's rendition. 'Ullasada Hoo Male', 'Kanaso Iidhu', and 'Iralaaare Cheluve have become popular hits.

2) 'Krishna': Racing towards the 75-day mark, Krishna has proved a success at the box office as well as in the audio market. Hari Krishna has made a strong comeback as music director. 'Neenu Bandha Mele Thaane' and the title song have become hugely popular.

3) 'Milana': Melodious tunes have taken the album to this spot. It marks a continuation of Mano Murthy's dream run. 'Ninnindhale Ninnindhale' is the top song of the album.

4) 'Ee Bandhana': The Sonu Nigam-rendered 'Adhe Bhoomi Adhe Haadu' is the pick of the album. The film is yet to be released, but the album is doing very well.

5) 'Chanda': The film is doing well, and so are its songs. Director S. Narayan has proved his mettle as a music composer. 'Ninnaase Chanda' by Kumar Sanu is the top song of the album.
